Butterfly Kisses

Making up for Past Mistakes awarded me with a BUTTERFLY Award! Thank you so much :) I am sure you can tell based on the title of my blog that I love the butterflies. I have always felt an attraction to butterflies like most girls and then after a horrible break-up many years ago I stumbled upon two quotes that aided my decision to make the butterfly my emblem. The first quote was: If it weren't for change, we wouldn't have butterflies. I was able to see that change was a good thing. The second quote was: what the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly. This enlightened me to see that my break up was not the end of the world, and there was hope I would morph into something beautiful from all of the sadness. I collect butterflies or little bits of beauty in the hopes of becoming the woman I want to be -- financially, socially and emotionally.

This blog post has come at such a critical time for me. On Monday my mother can into town for a visit and brought me a butterfly. She said that she was praying over me and my breakup with the "ex" and she is it as a omen. Butterflies are supposed to be good luck. Then, yesterday as we were walking into a restaurant to eat lunch, there was a beautiful butterfly on the sidewalk. The butterfly was alive so I didn't keep it, but she reinforced the idea that something great is going to come from the breakup. Now, she sees the something great as us getting back together, and I am not sure that it what it is, but the fact remains there have been a lot of great omens in my life this week. Thanks for your post.
